ABOUT ON STAGE PHOTOGRAPHY

Dancers, musicians, actors and singers offer great opportunities for photographing people. Used to being the focus of attention, performers - especially when they are on stage - are great subjects for photographers hoping to capture a striking and dramatic image.

Whether it's a performance in a theater or a public festival, my goal is trying to capture a telling moment. It's not enough to make a nice "picture" of someone on stage, but rather to create a photograph that expresses the energy of the moment.

This can be particularly challenging, because as photographer i have no control over the lighting, the setting, or the background. It's a "carpe diem" photography i have only to catch the moment....
